' Find a girl a boyfriend and she ditches you.' Navaya grumbled under her breath as she got out of her car. Already getting pissed off by Becca's lovestruck behavior.
It was like Becca was slowly ditching her to go be with her Leonardo. If it had been someone else, it wouldn't have been hard to guess what the two rascals were doing at home but for someone like Becca, it kinda made it hard to know for sure.
Navaya had just returned from work but felt hopelessly bored at home so she decided to go to blue diamond and get herself drunk as it seemed it had been a while since she had done so. And might as well fire up her libido well she was at it.
Since it was a Monday night and she technically still had tomorrow, all she had to do was drink with caution, make sure her hangover tomorrow would be bearable and she would be fine.
With that thought, Navaya walked into the club. Her heels clicking with every step she took.
Tonight wasn't going to be like the night she brought Becca there. No, tonight would be different. Navaya planned on going all out to enjoy herself and that includes sitting at the VIP lounge. Not amongst the peasants like she did before.
Dressed for the sole purpose of killing, Navaya was escorted to the VIP lounge by two tall muscular bouncers who said they would be showing her to a seat that would accommodate all her needs and you can just imagine the surprise she got when she got to the table and saw Johnny sitting there with a wide ass grin on his face. Looking as handsome as ever.
Hmph!
Navaya snorted, rolling her eyes as she spun around to leave but was blocked by the two bouncers that escorted her there.
" You can leave now, boys. I will make sure she stays put." Johnny dismissed his henchmen and gestured Navaya to have a seat next to him.
Navaya snarled at him, steam literally coming out of her ears as she glared at the seat next to Johnny then at him. How could he even call them boys? With their almost seven feet height, they should be called giants and with the broody look on their faces, Navaya knew they weren't the friendly type.
" What the heck do you want from me?" She gritted, her feet still glued to the spot refusing to move. All she came here to do was have some fun and get a little drunk but this handsome motherfucker just had to come here and fuck up her plans.
How did he even know she was going to be here? Has he been keeping tabs on her? That overbearing bastard!
" A lot of things actually. I want so much from you, Navaya but right now I'm willing to settle with just having you sitting next to me." By my side, where you belong.
She blinked on hearing Johnny's words, pressing her feet hard to the floor in defiance and what she just did, her lack of compliance made his grin falter.
Johnny always knew she was a tough woman. Smart too, very smart. She was everything he every wanted in his life. Everything he ever needed and she needed someone like him too, she just didn't know it yet. And Johnny was more than ready to make her realize that she did, he would make sure of it. But right now her acts of defiance were starting to piss him off.
It was like the woman couldn't go without trying to push him away. Pretending like his presence didn't affect her when it clearly did.
" And what if I say I don't want to? What if I say I don't give a damn what you want from me because I'm not going to give anything to you?" Navaya was trading in areas she shouldn't have in the first place. She was playing with fire, a grinning flame that didn't just want to burn her but consume her whole.
A selfish flame that wanted to have her all to himself so much, he was considering kidnapping her on the spot. To take her to a place where no one would ever have access to her but him. But he pushed the tempting urge to do so aside and smiled at her instead.
" What do you know about wants? How do you know you wouldn't want to if you don't even know what you want?" Johnny asked, leaning forward on his seat and rested his elbows on his laps. He kept his eyes fixed on her, not looking away even once. Navaya was truly a sight to behold in that dress she wore and he didn't want to look away.
He stared so much, it looked like he was trying to memorize her every curve. Every twitch of her lips, everything contour on her face. Everything. He wanted to capture them all.
The dress she wore showed a perfect amount of cleavage, emphasized her curves nicely and as much as Johnny loved looking at her in it, he hated that every fucker with a dick in the damn club could see her in it as well.
Fuck hating it, it infuriated him. Navaya and her hotness were only for his eyes to see.
Johnny raked her from head to toe with his eyes before returning his gaze back to her face, forcing the smile on his face to stay there despite how Navaya was trying to piss him off.
A twitched to her lips as she balled her hands to fists was the only way Navaya stopped herself from lunging at Johnny. The cocky, handsome, annoying prick.
He was at it again, the only thing he ever did to her since his frequent unwanted visits started. Mental spanking.
He always had his cunning way of always reminding her that she made a mistake by dating Ace. She knew she did but he didn't always have to rub it in?
She never told Johnny that him marrying Nicky was a big mistake so why was he always doing it to her?
An obvious answer was because Nicky loved Johnny too much to even dream of cheating on him, while her case with Ace was a different story.
To annoy him the same way he always did to her, Navaya crossed her arm over her chest, a deep scowl on her face as she remained where she stood. Daring him even more.
Testing to see how far he was going to take it before he cracked and explodes.
He was practically forcing her to sit next to him, like who the hell does that?
" Go away or I will." Navaya said, her pretty brown eyes glaring viciously at him while he fought the urge to laugh.
Navaya was just so hot when she was angry.
" You can try to leave but I don't think my two good friends over there would be too supportive of your decision." He said, gesturing to the bouncers that were waiting in the lower lounge.
Navaya looked down at the lower lounge, her jaw clenching as she saw the seven feet tall bodyguards waiting down there like loyal hounds then looked at the obnoxious caveman they served. Johnny Ramus!
" So what if you have your hounds on patrol, I would rather drop dead than sit with you." Navaya huffed and stormed towards the lower lounge only to be escorted back to Johnny by his men.
Seeing Navaya being escorted back to him, Johnny stood up from his seat. The smile on his lips wider than ever as he once again gestured Navaya to the seat next to him.
She turned to look at the bodyguards behind her, contemplating her chances of leaving this hell hole without completely embarrassing herself in front of everyone and let out a defeated sigh when she realized she had none. Not with the Alpha hound and his lackeys surrounding and watching her like that.
Navaya grumbled and cursed but still sat next to him because apparently she had no choice whatsoever and Johnny bit his lip on a laugh.
" Why are you here?" Navaya huffed, her eyes still shooting vicious glare at him. The man just seemed to be everywhere. First in Becca's office, then in her office and now he was at her favorite club. Where else would she find him?
" What are you doing here on a Monday night?" Johnny asked and took his seat, ignoring how Navaya nostrils flared.
" I asked first."
Johnny chuckle. " I was bored at home, had nothing to do so I asked Google where rich men in New York go to burn some cash and found this place. Then I liked it here, got carried away and ended up buying the place. So, what's your story?" Johnny asked, not missing the way Navaya's lips almost twitched into a smile.
Okay, what Johnny told Navaya might not have been completely true but at least a good amount of it were.
He was bored at home not because he didn't have anything to do but because nothing in his house could hold his attention. Not even his fancy wine cellar. His mind was too preoccupied with the woman sitting next to him that even his most expensive bottle of liquor didn't perk his interest.
He definitely didn't ask Google that stupid question, he was rich and already knew how to torch money in the most merciless way possible so why asked? But he did keep tabs on Navaya though, that he was guilty of. He always kept an eye on his targets.
And after their sizzling hot kiss from before, damn Johnny couldn't keep his mind to himself. With the way thoughts of Navaya were filling his head these days, he knew he would go crazy before the month ended if he didn't meet her again. If he didn't touch her.
That's if a simple touch could sate his hunger for her.
He did buy the club though, not because he got carried away but because his sources told him that Navaya liked the place. Blue diamond was at the top of her list of favorite clubs and was hoping that one day when she finally acknowledges the connection between them, he would surprise her with it.
He couldn't wait for that day to come.
Navaya worked her jaw as she rolled her eyes at him. " I came here for fun and to get drunk." Navaya said, watching Johnny as he took a drag from his vape.
" Really now, and you couldn't get drunk at the comfort of your own home where you would be safe from other drunken people?" Johnny asked and Navaya glared at him through the puff of smoke he released.
" It's none of your business, is it?" She snapped and her nose crinkled at the smoke he was puffing. " What are you even smoking? It's doesn't smell like tobacco."
Johnny looked at her and smiled. " Hash." He offered her the vape. " Wanna try."
She stared at the vape Johnny was offering her then at him. " Aren't you one of those mafiosos with really insane, uptight rules around their women?"
" I am Johnathan Ramus after all. I am definitely one of those mafiosos." He leaned towards her. " Only you aren't my woman." Not yet at least.
Something flashed through her eyes, something furious.
" You fucking right I'm not." She yanked the vape out of his hand and took a drag out of it.
Her lips hung open for a second before a puff of smoke came out and Johnny licked his lips at the sexy sight, a big twitch to his cock.
" Good stuff." Navaya handed back the vape to Johnny, holding it out with the tips of her fingers to prevent him from touching her. As if that would stop him if he really wanted to touch her.
Although Johnny badly wanted to tease her and feel her tremble under his touch, he still took the vape back without touching her. A woman like Navaya should be treated like a queen even when being teased.
" How do you know what's good?" Johnny asked with a hint of laughter in his voice, recalling when she and Becca got caught smoking weed.
Navaya's jaw twitched for a second before her face became stern. " I went to college. What? Are you going to tell my dad?"
" And why would I do that?" He took another drag from his vape, his lips on the same spot her lips were and the taste of her lipstick on it almost drove him wild.
Navaya blinked at him, her gaze going back and forth from his eyes to his mouth and he smirked. Filling the air around them with smoke.
She then went ahead to pick up a glass and poured herself a generous amount of whiskey, sipping it slowly while frowning at him.
" I don't know. Maybe you think you can blackmail me with it or something crazy like that." She responded, and Johnny inched a brow at her.
" Blackmail you into what?"
Navaya shrugged her shoulders. " Into whatever the fuck you want from me, Johnny."
" And what do you think that is?" Johnny smiled, loving that they were finally having a conversation without her trying to push him away or fighting with him.
" Something I can't give to you, not anymore." Navaya said, dropping her gaze immediately those words left her lips and Johnny placed his finger on her chin, forcing her to look at him.
" Why not? I'm a person who knows how to protect, respect and take care of a woman." Johnny said before a naughty smirk curved his lips. " and above all knows how to pleasure one."
Taken aback, Navaya blinked twice at him before regaining her composure.
" Well good for you, Casanova but I'm good. And for pleasure, I have a hand and a battery operated dick. They work just fine." Navaya retorted, taking a sip of her whiskey and Johnny grinned.
" Oh" He chuckled. " I see but I can assure you that my hand and my Johnny-operated dick are much better. You have tried both so I don't need to go into details." Johnny said and Navaya choked.
Despite being the cause, Johnny moved closer to her and used his hand to pat her on the back until she stopped coughing.
" I have tried your product, it wasn't as good as you advertised." Navaya clapped back, aiming straight for his ego. What could injure a man's pride more than hearing that his dick and skills in bed suck from a woman he fucked.
Johnny stared at her for a few seconds, not a single sign of anger on his face.
" So was moaning and screaming my name in bed while I made love to you your way of saying my cock wasn't good or were you just trying to tell me something else?" Johnny licked his lips, trailing his finger down her jaw.
" Fuck you." She gritted, her chest heaving as she pushed Johnny's hand away and he beamed at her.
" Your actions and words are starting to make me think you want it more than I do." He looked down at her heaving chest then at her face.. " You want it."
